Metaphor

Push through the cobwebs cluttering the attic of your mind--

but what a tired metaphor! 

Which, when you think about it, is in itself a tired metaphor --

and metaphors are sort of overdone, anyway.

But! I will persevere.

I am going to slog through this --

"Slog"? Who says slog? That is a poety word, not a real one --

-- I am going to beat this dead horse

until a gift falls out of it's

dry, old mouth.
